Cube 2015 Cross Race Cyclocross Bike

Product Description

Long live the sport of cyclocross! The Cross Race waves the flag for classic cantilever brakes - which still have a place in cross racing, training or even for the demands of daily use. The Cross Race is a highly reliable companion for almost every situation.

Frame

The Cross Race bike features a light but very strong double butted Superlite Advanced 6061 aluminium frame, mechanically formed and heat treated. This makes the frame exceptionally stiff for out of the saddle efforts and sprinting. The 27.2mm seat post and vibration damping carbon fork add a whole lot of comfort and compliance to the package. The Ready For Race Geometry provides a riding position and agile handling perfectly tuned for the sport of cyclocross but also for training and adventure touring.

Components

The well established Avid Shorty 6 cantilever brakes make the Cross Race a simple and straightforward companion. In accordance with the multipurpose nature of the bike, the CUBE CSW CX0.7 wheels are light and fast for the road yet robust enough for hard terrain and cyclocross racing. The 11 speeds and 46/36 cranks on Shimano?s 105 groupset are as versatile as they are capable. Additional bar top brake levers allow for multiple braking positions while the STI shift/brake levers provide great shifting and braking performance from the low position. The quality CUBE cockpit and the precise Cross Race Canti carbon fork boost control over rough ground.
